Coasters

Great service, but I expected a little more from the food. It wasn't bad at all. I just expected the food to be a little better based on all the reviews. I got the tuna carpaccio as an appetizer and everyone at the table really enjoyed it. I then ordered a classic burger cooked medium rare. I got it well done, but I refuse to send food back so I tried to eat it. I could have probably powered through, but it was bland and I couldn't do it. The servers were really friendly and attentive, which is why I am giving a four star rating.

A hidden gem! Fun atmosphere on the water. Live music starts at 11am on Sundays. Waffle tacos are amazing! $20 for your choice of 2. $5 Bloodies. Our server Jordan was amazing!Sooooo good!

I never leave reviews but I feel like this place deserves one. We drove in from Conroe Tx on the motorcycle and was ready to enjoy a good dinner. When we arrived at the hotel wr asked the front desk where they recommended for us to have dinner and Coasters was the first place they named. We arrived at Coasters and we were a little skeptical and were expecting regular "bar food" but after looking at the menu we were happy. We order the Filet Mignon one medium rare and the other rare. The steaks were cooked perfectly and tasted phenomenal. The drinks and food was 100000% perfect and the staff/bar tender were very nice. Definitely recommend Coasters!!!

We stayed in Port Aransas for the week of Thanksgiving 2025. Ate at Coasters twice. We did brunch on Sunday and liked it so much we went back a few days later for lunch. The catch of the day with beurre blanc sauce was the best meal I had the entire trip. Their bloody Mary’s are fantastic as well. We will be back next trip.

What a fun little place!!! The food was so good!! We went for brunch and everything we had was cooked well and delicious 😋 We ate the Chorizo hash, Benny's Benedict, and the fish platter. The blueberry creme brulee

Such a cute place! We went for brunch and enjoyed our time here. The weather was beautiful, so the 30 minute wait wasn’t a big deal. Mia was our server and she was very sweet and attentive. I had a mojito and the shrimp and grits. Both were excellent! Husband had a tasty lemon meringue martini, and the chicken and waffles with candied bacon. The waffles were good. He says the candied bacon was worth the extra that it cost. The chicken, however, was overcooked and tough. It didn’t really even seem to be what we would consider fried. No batter, just seasoning and in all honesty, just bad. The prices were reasonable and we will definitely return, just not for the chicken and waffles.😉

My new favorite seafood place!!! Nice view, nice food, reasonable price. Fresh daily fish (we got red drums)!! Freshness is paramount for seafood!!!! The sauces we had were very delicious (we had Sicilian and Blackpool) and they elevated the freshness of the fish. The risotto and veggies were so filling too. The only disappointment I had was that there was no draft beer. But the bottle Corona Premier I had was not bad either. Our server was lovely and kept making sure we were feeling comfortable. A very relaxing and pleasant dining experience with wonderful food. Definitely would pay another visit 💕 P.S. kittens around, cuteness overload 🐱🐾

Absolutely loved my experience at Coasters in Aransas Pass! 🌟 From the moment we arrived, everything felt relaxed and welcoming. The atmosphere is unmatched—sipping mimosas with a waterfront view was the perfect start to the day. The service was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home without being overbearing. Now let’s talk about the food—delicious! I had the breakfast bowl with eggs and grits, and every bite was seasoned perfectly and fresh. You can tell they put love into the kitchen. Add in a little sparkling wine, and I was sold. This place is a hidden gem and absolutely worth the visit if you’re in the area. Can’t wait to come back!

Anchor Balls as an appetizer - great flavor! The fisherman's platter is a lot of food! Great sized shrimp & the redfish was delicious. Sitting at the picnic table enjoying the cool breeze and watching the water was awesome! Definitely must try if you're in the area!!

Food outstanding Service outstanding Ambiance perfect I will recommend to everyone and I will be coming back

We are so impressed by this little water front spot. The menu is fantastic, staff so accommodating, great breeze and views, and drinks (smoked old fashioned with your choice of whiskey, chips, and bitters for $3 over the shot price) are all incredible. Puts some of the Port A and Padre Island spots to shame!

First time we ate at Coasters won't be the last! Chicken Tortilla Soup, Shrimp Scampi, Blackened Redfish with Risotto, and Fisherman's Platter for dinner with Crème Brûlée to finish. Excellent flavors and generous portions. Service was fantastic. If you go ask for Avery. She took good care of us with a great personality too! The patio was clean and the grounds were nice. Pretty views of Conn Harbor Channel.

Great food and affordable too! The fisherman's platter was awesome. The fish of the day when we went was redfish. I got mine blackened and my shrimp fried. Tasty! The hush puppies were delicious too. Nice place on the water

The food , service and ambiance was totally amazing!! I can't wait to go back and try something different. What a gem!!!

Never again Coasters. Sunday 1/12/2025 at 12:45pm. Two of us sat at an outside, covered picnic table anticipating Sunday Funday lunch. We were told by the host that we could not sit there. He asked us to sit at the bar (not a drinker, so no to a bar seat) or chairs on the seawall. I explained to him that I have skin cancer and am not going to sit in a spot with no shade. Super bad customer experience. We left and had a great lunch at Dorados across the harbor. Will never be returning to Coasters.

The food, the food and the food!!!! Outstanding! Now let's talk about the service and atmosphere! Fantastic! We will be going for brunch!!

Place is right on the water. Friendly helpful wait staff. We shared the house salad and the seafood platter and both were delicious! We will be back!

We had brunch on Sunday. The waffles were delicious! I had the classic breakfast with eggs, potatoes, bacon, and toast. Yummy! The service was on point. The view of the water and boats was refreshing. I will return to try lunch dishes.

A surprising menu for a small beachy vibe. The food is well prepared and the sauces are amazing. Highly recommend!

Picked up dinner tonight from Coasters. Dang, what a treat. Both of our plates were huge AND delicious. Super nice young lady answered the phone when we placed our order. I'm excited to try dining in!

The food was excellent! I had the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich - The Best! Had just a right amount of their homemade "wing sauce" - as good as they said it would be if not better! Had the best crispy fries to go with it.

So good! I got the Build Your Own Po Boy (fried catch of the day) and my husband got the Seared Tuna. We really enjoyed the lunch after a full morning of fishing. Great service and clean!

Quaint little spot on a bay. The food was delicious and the staff were friendly! Very nice place. Vegetarian options.

So yummy! Hidden gem for sure, but a great option if you want to avoid going to the island. The prickly sausage was very good, not spicy but the salad was chefs kiss. We also sampled the waffle tacos for the table. One taco will fill one person, their huge

Genuinely a great experience, make sure you arrive early for brunch on Sundays or else you will have to wait but the atmosphere and food are worth it, open outdoor seating with views of the bay, friendly service and not badly priced. I will definitely be going back for lunch during the week! Off the beaten path but well worth it!

Wow! This place is definitely on our list of Best Waterfront Dining now! We split the chef salad, very good! And blackened redfish on risotto. Fantastic! The chocolate crème brute was perfect for a finish!

Just an update. Just went back to Coasters a year later...still just as awesome. Had the cheesecake waffle which was so delicious. Had another bucket of mimosas! Everything was perfect. Great place and great service. Get there early because it fills up fast

Delicious food right on the bay! Sunny cool day was perfect for relaxing near the water.

Excellent lunch there with friends. Everyone was happy. Delicious appetizers started the day.

Beautiful ambiance! Attentive service! Delicious flavor! Love this place. We recently celebrated my son's new job here. We ate brunch-they had Hashes I had the delicate delightful Crab Benedict. From the first bite to the last - 4 Star Standout! Light tasty seasoned Hollidaise on the mound of crab! Yum. The Hashes had potato, onion, pepper, sausage cheesy delicious filling mounds. Get here! Worth it !

We stopped in for brunch and it was delicious! Hubby had the shrimp & cheese grits and I had the French toast - both were delicious. My Bloody Mary was perfectly spiced. It was a lovely view with great food- best brunch in town.

The food was delicious and so were the drinks. The waffle tacos with strawberry cheesecake sweet cream....amazing!

Great brunch when we stopped on a Sunday. Right by the water. Espresso martini and bloody mary's were awesome.

Went on Saturday brunch and got chicken and waffles, wife got sweet waffles. SO GOOD! This is our second time here, getting the same order as last time, and it did not disappoint. Great spot outside to eat and relax! Will keep coming back!

Absolutely delicious! Waterside seating with a glorious cool breeze and an excellent waitress willing to answer all of our questions and make solid suggestions. Highly recommended!

It's always a blast to come to coasters. The food is consistent, which makes everyone happy. If you need some spice in your life, they have some fun food challenges. But let's talk about the Staff. The staff is off the hook great courteous, nice just amazing all the way around.

Love this little restaurant!! The staff, the owners and the food are always amazing. Love the ambiance and everyone is so friendly and welcoming. We've going there for years and will continue

Saturday night dinner out and this place was a day care with kids screaming. Margaritas suck and greasy appetizers. Prices sky high for entrees. Limited menu and we were the only customers in the joint at 6pm. The waitress discussed the issue with management in the kitchen and the manager shook his head in discussed as he looked my wife in the eye across the restaurant. Hmmmmm. NOPE!!!!! Best tip, never dine at a place with zero cars in their parking lot on a Saturday night!!!

Service was amazing. Food was good. Brussels too crunchy. Dis was on point! Like the view.

The food was delicious!! They make an excellent mushroom cheesy risotto with a blackened fish of the day, my husband had a cob salad with a nice size blackened shrimp. Anchor balls are most try for appetizers and the MARGARITAS very good as well. The ambience by the water is relaxing and nice view if catch a sunset. Our server took a little while to get to us but once she did everything went smoothly. Will definitely return!!

One star for dessert - not sure about actual food. So this restaurant was right around the corner and we were craving creme brûlée. I called ahead and went to pick it up. While I was at the bar, the bartender was very nice. They were busy so it took a while for the waitress to ring me up, but I was cool with it. I got home and we were so excited. I opened the container and it had marshmallows and syrup! We were shocked. Right away my friend was like "I'm not going to eat that!" I was trying to be open-minded and started eating it. It was like melted custard. But it was cold? So I don't know what was happening. I ended up throwing my dessert away too. My receipt said two creme brûlées so I don't know if they make it different- or it was another dessert entirely. Either way it wasn't good.

Usually a great place to bring out of town visitors for brunch, but today was terrible. Slow, unmotivated staff, which meant slow table turns, really slow kitchen. Overall it seemed like they were uninterested in any customer experience. The food was good except for the Avocado Benedict special my wife ordered - it was terrible. They need to invest in some shade and service for people waiting. It took 2 hours & 15 mins start to finish, 55 mins wait for a table, over an hour for food, we ate in 10 minutes. The kids picnic table they seated us at was pitiful. Our waitress was trying to be responsive, but she evidently wasn't able to motivate the rest of the staff. We will avoid brunch going forward, but frankly, this was one of the worst experiences we have ever had. Be prepared if you decide to try it.

My shrimp boil was excellent! Perfectly seasoned. My husband's "Poor Boy" was dry. Service was excellent!

It was Amazing! The food was good the place was amazing and the waiter was nice and the view was pretty!

The shrimp and grits were bursting with flavor. Generous portion. My husband got the fisherman's platter. It was a platter of fried fish, shrimp, and fries. Step outside the box, people. The scallops looked great, too. The chef did an outstanding job of combining flavors. The bloody Mary was probably the worst I've ever had. It looked great, but don't be fooled. The service was slow but ok. Don't go if you are looking for fast food and fast service.

We were looking for a nice but casual place to eat and have drinks on the water. A friend recommended Coasters and it was perfect. Service was great. Food and drinks were tasty. Prices were very reasonable as well.

The food was great and fresh. Perfect spot on the water. Waitress was attentive and did amazing. Highly recommend!

Nice place. Friendly staff. The service was slow due to staff members in training. The shrimp and mussels were cooked good. I recommend the restaurant but not close to closing, you might get lost in the shuffle as staff member are cleaning to close. We did choose to dime at this facility during spring break which might explained the slow service. I look forward to dining during non tourist season.

Great service and food. Also the vibe is friendly and coastal. We had shrimp and fish and a great ceaser salad. We will be back!

This was my first time at coasters since it changed from RFW a couple years ago. The atmosphere has not changed much besides so decor but the food has SIGNIFICANTLY improved. I was in a group and the service was incredible. We tried the wimpy burger which was delicious highly recommend for anyone that loves spice; they have a good selection for the small bar and the beer is ice cold. The seating right on the water is perfect for lunch and dinner.

Cute place on the water - really wanted to love it. Our servers were great - we were seated at "the window" seat so we were able to see all the orders come by. Everything looked delicious. My Eggs Benny also looked delish and although flavors were all good, the eggs were overcooked - tasted and looked like boiled eggs. Yuck. My husband liked his cactus hash and the breakfast potatoes were good.

On our way back home from vacationing on Padre Island, we decided to pamper ourselves at Candlewood Suites Aransas Pass. The first thing we asked Joshua, the desk clerk, ... "Where can we get some good seafood? It just doesn't make sense to vacation on the Gulf coast and not eat seafood!" The first place he mentioned was "Coaster's", so we headed out. The Fish Platter and Fish of the Day were awsome! We were sooo full!! After my wife's crazy Bloody Mary and my pineapple tequila shots and beer, we were happy vacationers! Our server, Mackenzie R, was very attentive without being over-bearing (you know th' type). She laughed at my dumb jokes, and served us with a smile, anyway. The food came fast and the drinks were even faster. We only stayed in Aransas Pass two nights, but I'm gald we found Coaster's.

Wonderful, laid back, and friendly restaurant with a great vibe and excellent food! Our server, McKenzie was outstanding, super nice, and very attentive. I had the most amazing coastal salad (with steak added). Lots of Keto-friendly options compared to other places we've dined at. The dining area is inside but open and airy (roller doors partially opened); the sea breeze greets you softly at your table. There's also a patio area outside where you can chill out and have a drink, a smoke, and watch the gulls yammer away. We'll definitely swing back here before we leave! The wife's wanting the eggs Benedict served on Saturday and Sunday only (come on, man! :--) XOXO

We were really pleased to find the food here to be outstanding. We made two different trips on our stay and both times the food was outstanding. On the first trip we ordered an appetizer of the fried buffalo chicken balls which I did not expect to be much. They turned out to be surprisingly delicious. My friend had the fried fish and shrimp platter. He said they were the best fried shrimp he's ever had. I ordered the fish if they say which came blackened in a delicious sauce with risotto and vegetables. It was outstanding. Our second visit we had the crawfish cake appetizer which was delicious. I had the Captains pasta with the beurre blanc sauce and shrimp and steak, and a side salad. My friend had the filet with a side of 4 fried shrimp and a side salad. It was all amazing. We both grew up in the restaurant business, and we asked to meet the chef. I hope this restaurant keeps up this level of food and service; It's rare to find!

The fried shrimp and fish were excellent! Service was good even though the one waitress was overloaded. The ambience was outstanding with views over the water, marina, and boat launching from the giant forklift next door.

Awesome food and service. Food proportions are very large and very tasty. Server was always coming around to refill drinks before I could finish mine. Good view, nice weather when I was there too.

Unbelievable find!!! A locals fine dining seafood restaurant on the water!!! The chefs really know their stuff. Seriously trained I assume.
